Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Glad you're here. O/
Subdued grey reluctant to blue sky shows with the sunrise.
Hope all's well.
Time for a spell.
Here we go.
On with our show...
...
Sunshine from moon dreams fantastical words for you.
Do you check your phone screen first thing in the morning?
There's no shame in it.
There's a whole world of humanity in there.
You're plugged in.
So you plunge in.
Good for you.
Didn't think me, Mr. Wonder Fell Sunshine, would think it a good thing?
That phone is a block of lit up dreams!
Of course, Mr. Wonder Fell Sunshine thinks it's a good thing.
Chances are you're reading me on it now.
O/
Those dreams are there to share and be shared there and in the air.
Don't forget about the air.
There's a whole lot of air out there to share in, too.
Share your dreams with the whole world and your air with a few close friends.
That sounds like a good life.
It's always about your intentions, your whys.
Why are you picking up the phone first thing in the morning?
To check on friends?
Check your schedule?
Check the weather?
Get a News fix filled?
If you like why you're doing it, keep going.
If you dream yourself a good friend, check in with them.
You have a why for what you do.
Figure it out.
Own it and be you on purpose.
You gotta be you anyway.
It goes better, your life is fuller, when you live it on purpose.
Today's a good day for you.
This is more than optimism.
These are Optimist Tinted-Glasses!
Wear them with care.
The world is a lot better than you've been led to believe.
A pair of Optimist Tinted-Glasses are life changing.
No worries. Put 'em on.
It's all good.
As you'll soon see, as soon as you put 'em on.
Take care, keep your lenses clean, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

A Palette of Sunshine

Saturday, July 05, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Hello. O/
Another cool Summer Sunrise with your cool warm sunny Ghos+.
Glad you're here.
Here we go.
On with our show...
...
Topic to pick.
To pick a topic to pic.
Wordplay works.
Wordplay's work, for me.
Wordplay works, for me.
I hope you think so, too.
Thank you for reading.
...
Dance and sing!
We're at it again.
This thing we call a day.
"Is it philosophy?"
- Curious Potential Reader
"Nah, just a guy sharing his morning thoughts. He's a poet, though, so he sees the world in different ways. It's cool... gives you a new way to see things."
- Insightful Longtime Wonder Fell Reader (Who is Also Cool)
A solid year since I started.
I keep it simple; first thing in the morning writing is a daydreamer's stretch.
"How do you pick what to write about?"
- Curious Reader
I don't.
It's always the same thing.
I write what the day has to say first thing in the morning.
I write what's new, what's up with the light.
I write the sunrise.
Fire consistently changes to change.
Every sunrise is newly made to show all things in a new light.
Our greatest constant, The Sun, is by design an agent of change.
The Sun shines consistently, though inconsistent through our means of measure, light for us to evaluate the pictures of our day.
If your cellphone screen lights flickered with the consistency of The Sun, you'd barely read a reliable word.
The Sun's not a light bulb; that star is a heavenly painter.
It's medium is color itself.
"Oh... look what you did."
- The Sun Giving an Interpretation of Your Actions
So it helps to sit in the morning, at anytime during the day, and get better acquainted with the day's palette of sunshine.
A better relationship with how the day feels means you know your audience better, means you can always show yourself in your best light.
Take care, consider sunshine an artist's touch, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Nice.

Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Made it. O/
Welcome back.
Good to be read by you again.
Here we go.
On with our show...
...
Sun's up. Cool summer morning. A few thunderstorms yesterday broke the humidity, set the stage for a nice day.
Sometimes the weather is so nice the right thing to talk about is how nice it is.
"Wow, what a nice day."
- Person Experiencing a Nice Day
"Yeah, it is nice out today."
- Person Experiencing a Nice Day's Friend
When nice is exceptional you're in for a nice day.
Isn't that nice?
Interesting morning. Long sleep.
Hope things are well with you.
Back to nice...
Can you ever have enough nice?
What is nice?
Nice is comfortable good.
Nice is an intentional act of kindness.
...
Slow word morning.
What more to say?
Abe... eyes closed, nose close to the open window, keeping his closed eyes open by using his nose to see.
A good day for a daydream.
What to do with a nice day?
Do you read much?
Reading a book is a nice thing to do on a nice day.
Do you have some good friends?
Sharing a nice time with some nice friends is a good thing to do on a nice day.
Daydreaming, as Abe staring out the window with his nose and sometimes open eyes knows, is a nice thing to do on a nice day.
Taking care of yourself because you matter is just about the nicest thing you can do on a nice day.
So take care of you, enjoy this nice day, and make wonderful this wonderful (isn't it nice?) day.

Your. Best. Day. Ever.
2025.07.03
Thursday, July 03, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Hey. O/
Good to be read by you again.
Hope all's well.
Here we are, so here we go.
On with our show...
...
Your: Best. Day. Ever.
You should have that.
Why wait?
Today works.
Work it.
You got this.
It's not all happy-giddy-fun. Our best days never are.
They're steady. They're calm. They're reassuring. They're satisfying.
You get what you pay for on your Best Day Ever.
Not with money necessarily, but with the currency of the quality of your time invested.
When you put your heart, soul, and compassion into a task, heartful, soulful, compassion comes back... on your Best Day Ever.
Do it.
Tell yourself today is your Best Day Ever and your mind will find reasons that it could be true.
Follow those reasons!
What you have is called: Your Life.
Own it.
A self-satisfied peaceful humility is a good state to be in on a Best Day Ever kind of day.
Don't concern yourself over your outward circumstances.
This is about you.
And what's best for you is to have the best relationship you can with yourself today.
Be kind!
To you!
"What? I can do that?"
-Reader Undergoing a Life-Changing Epiphany
"Yes!"
- Author Using a Quote for Dramatic Effect
It's your relationship with the world as you see it that defines your experience.
Look at your life through a new lens.
Best. Day. Ever. Glasses.
Wear 'em!
There's Joy.
There's Despair.
There are songs of love and songs to bring tears.
But there is always a reason for music.
So there is always a reason for dancing.
...
Sun's up.
Abe chases rabbits from the yard.
A hot, but not uncomfortable, Summer Day on the way.
I hope life is treating you well.
See today as your Best Day Ever and reasons why it is will show up.
Take care, have your first Best Day Ever, and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Something Called Empathy
2025.07.02
Wednesday, July 02, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
O/
Welcome back.
Sunshine, daydreams, the dream of today, you and I and what reading can do.
Hope things are well.
Here we go.
On with our show...
...
Transition Day. Punto, period, punto.
Like the world rearranged parts while you slept, like everything in your life is somehow different, like the ingredients are all the same but something poured sugar or salt over all the pieces of your life while you were dreaming.
Like today.
I know Transition Days happen to you, too.
It's my work to consider such things.
If you ever felt or said: "Something about this feels different or not right or too easy," then you know about Transition Days.
Things fall into place, the previously stuck ball starts to roll for no apparent reason at all... change happened.
Measurable by the experience of juxtaposing old memories to new events and having their relationships bring about unexpected results.
Change isn't in the air; it is the air on a Transition Day.
A rather loud one this morning, for me.
"What's changed, Ghos+?"
- Good Reader with a Very Good Question
That's the way and reason for days like today, to find out what changed to trigger the new feelings.
It's like when something is upsetting a good friend of yours.
They don't mention it to you, nothing about their body language is different, but you sense it.
There's a lot more going on with what feelings are for than just what physical touch can do.
The unspoken sad dreams of a friend can bring you down.
Their unsaid joys can lift you up, too.
I know you know this truth true.
If you ever cared about anything deeply you have something called: Empathy.
You also have my respect, my hopes, and my joy.
Empathy is the missing ingredient in our lives today.
Lack of it explains every newscast we roll our eyes at, shake our heads at.
If you read me much chances are you're an empathic person.
The best kind of person.
The kind living right.
Not such an easy thing to be empathic and free, but it's the best kind of life.
A knowing, a sense, that others are feeling life too and we feel something, our experience is changed, because they are... that's empathy.
It's crucial to the success of everyone that we recognize the reality of empathy.
And take responsibility for it.
The emotional tone of every person, place, or thing is directly affected by our own tone.
There's a whole felt world we never see but we feel... together.
Recognize how you feel for no reason at all, find a reason, do something about it, see how it affects the rest of your day in unexpected ways, take care and make wonderful this wonderful day.

Nothing New Age, Nothing Hippie Far-Out
2025.07.01
Tuesday, July 01, 2025
Good morning, The Wonder Fell Way.
Happy New Tag Day. O/
A new month, the same wonderful you.
Hope all's well.
Sun's up.
Here we go.
On with our show...
...
Slow words sat with a sunrise sat... just sitting there... up there!
What you up to Sunshine?
Making summertime plans, for sure.
What does today want to say?
What message for you?
When you go out with friends it's always best to keep in mind what they want to do to, so you all enjoy the time the best you can.
It's the same with a day.
What's Today want to do?
"Live and grow."
- Today
Oh, the same thing as you.
See you have so much in common with Today.
You really should've started talking more a long time ago.
You'd both be better off for it right now.
But, here you are.
And where you are is a good place to start.
Find what serves you and Today the best and take the first step.
Together.
...
Interesting vibe in the air this morning.
Nothing New Age, nothing hippie far-out about it.
The feeling you have when you're watching a show for the first time and you know something is about to happen...
Some incident is just... about... to...
Drop!
And change everything for The Hero.
Incoming!
...
Love and money and dreams and what you want and what you need...
So many themes this morning, so much that wants a voice and just this one pen.
And you.
I'd ask you what you want to read about, and write something about it, if reader's eyes wrote back.
Until then it's Assumption-ville, USA for both of us.
I assume you're comfortable. That's good.
I assume you're enjoying the entry. That's good, too.
Another Choppy, Listy, Sentence Morning; there's a lot going on.
Here's my focus, the most important thing to say: Thank you.
Thank you for reading as much as you do.
I hope my words bring you some peace, some reflection, some questions and dreams you wouldn't have if you never found them.
I hope your life is enriched by my words.
It's my intent that it is.
If your day is lifted some place greater than you knew it could be before you read me, even for a moment, I'll consider my work a win.
Pun, as always, intended.
Take care, figure out what's up with today, and make wonderful your wonderful day.
